Welcome to Sundown, Arizona. On its surface, it's just another sun-scorched desert town. But evil dwells here...

A Blade to Silence the Screams

In the aftermath of a deadly house fire, the young survivor tells a chilling tale. "The Devil kilt my auntie and uncle. Kilt them with his claws then set hellfire to the farmhouse." Deputy John Pierce sets out to unravel the mystery and finds an unsettling pattern of housefires with no survivors. Is there a madman murdering folks and covering his tracks with flames? Or is there something more sinister at play?

There's a shadow over Sundown, and it carries a blade.

After Sundown

Two years after the events in A Blade to Silence the Screams, evil returns to Sundown. Sheriff Armstrong is found dead with a terrible message for young Deputy Billy Snow written in blood. Snow calls upon his old friend and mentor, John Pierce for help.

Pierce, retired from being a lawman and living the quiet life of a farmer, agrees to assist. What they find goes beyond the purview of the law and they enlist the shaman from a nearby reservation. Ghosts from Billy's past have come to Sundown, but are they human?


This collection of twin novellas from Bram Stoker Award winning author Tom Deady contains two terrifying tales set against the backdrop of the old west.

Tom Deady's first novel, HAVEN, won the 2016 Bram Stoker Award for Superior Achievement in a First Novel. He has since published several novels, novellas, a short story collection, and the first book in his middle grade horror series. Most recently, he compiled THE RACK, an anthology celebrating the bygone days of mass market horror paperbacks. He has a master's degree in English and Creative Writing and is a member of both the Horror Writers Association and the New England Horror Writers Association.
